Your Silence Will Not Protect You
de Audre Lorde
***Your Silence Will Not Protect You*** collects the essential essays and poems of Audre Lorde, including the classic '*The Master's Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master's House*'. A trailblazer in intersectional feminism, Lorde's luminous writings have inspired a new generation of thinkers and writers charged by the Black Lives Matter movement. Her lyrical and incisive prose takes on sexism, racism, homophobia, and class; reflecting struggle but ultimately offering messages of hope that remain ever-more trenchant today. Also a celebrated poet, Lorde was New York State Poet Laureate until her death; her poetry and prose together produced an aphoristic and incomparably quotable style, as evidenced by her constant presence on many Women's Marches against Trump across the world.
